Getting to know Temperance Thomas
Dr. Temperance M. Thomas is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor based in Ormond Beach, Florida.

Many of her clients have found success in balancing education, careers, family life, and relationships while working toward improved emotional well-being.

Dr. Thomas’s therapeutic approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), an evidence-based modality that helps clients understand the connection between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors to create meaningful and lasting change. She supports clients in identifying physical and emotional responses to stressors and collaboratively problem-solves strategies to promote calm and intentional responses rather than reactive patterns.
